ldv 's review for:
The End of Poverty: Economic Possibilities for Our Time
by Jeffrey D. Sachs
I finally finished it! Only took me 4 months or more.
As readable as it is, it's a tough-going book. A lot of stats and number-crunching, which is challenging for me.
The book provides a comprehensive perspective of poverty causes and solutions around the world. Heavy on the economics, of course because it is written by an economist. Despairing and yet hopeful. Poverty can be ended. We currently have all the resources necessary; we just have to use them properly.
